Howdy Faye!

Could you do a make distclean, and then try it without setting any environment 
variables, or using any configure options, and see if it works.

If so, do another make distclean, and try with --enable-shared and see if that 
works.

The idea is to set as little as possible to see if the netCDF configure script 
can figure out what is needed.

Please let me know what happens...

Thanks,

Ed
